University of Texas Club

the place is like walking back into 1974. everything is dated and old. the staff appears friendly when you sign up, but do not respond to questions or explain their services. many of the perks that they say come with the membership aren’t legit. honestly, you’ll have a better time going to a bowling alley.

The Bevo history in the lower lobby of the club is awesome, if you’re that into UT (I am). The club itself feels mighty swanky (although some of the furniture, etc, is starting to look/​feel dated), and everyone there is either old or possibly a lawyer. I feel a little ouf of place when I go, but I have my Texas’ Exes key fob in case anyone wants to get righteous on me.
But when it comes to the food, this is mostly an upscale Luby’s. I’m not saying the food is bad. It’s just not on par with what the experience feels like. Not all of the food is kept hot, and my cold potatoes I had for lunch weren’t doing it for me. The selection seems to be pared back from other times I’ve been in the past few years.
Service is great. Everyone working there is pleasant and helpful.
We tried having a business event there, and trying to secure a private/​semi private dining area and having this event at the UT Club proved to be impossible. The details had to be worked out with someone from ClubCorp who was not in Texas, much less Austin, and was less than cooperative. We were going to show up with 20+ people. You’d think they want the business, but I guess not.
